Two Manhattan West, USA

Master planned by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) and developed by Brookfield Properties, the 650,321 square meter Manhattan West development has been 20 years in the making. While One Manhattan West opened in 2019, the recent completion of Two Manhattan West marks the final chapter of the development of Manhattan West. One and Two Manhattan West, clad in high-performance glass, are designed to accentuate a soft, elegant simplicity that reflects the sky. With triple-height, transparent lobbies, the buildings provide views from corner to corner to reveal the central open space to pedestrians. The development’s central plaza is lined with a combined 225,000 square feet of retail to activate a vibrant new gathering space for residents, office workers, and travelers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Both towers stand on extremely challenging sites above active rail lines. Two Manhattan West contains a central core supported with "mega-columns". Highly visible, these mega-columns express the strength of the tower's structural system and announce the building's complex structural solution. Reminiscent of the legs of a table, the structural core is surrounded by a carefully crafted eucalyptus wood core. The 23-story Pendry and the 62-story Eugene bring hospitality and luxury residences, respectively, to the site. The Pendry–comprising 164 guest rooms and suites–is characterized by a dramatic, undulating glass-and-granite facade. The Eugene is an 844-unit residential tower that was designed in collaboration with SLCE Architects.
